Winter Wheat is Beginning to Head

C0RH CROP CULTIVATED ONCE
Crop reports of the Burlington and
the Northwestern for the week end
ing last Saturday continue to show
an improvement in the condition of
wheat and corn throughout Nebraska,
with every indication that the former
will be of the bumper variety if the
weather continues favorable a little
while longer. ' ; ,
The railroads report that all over
the state the winter wheat is begin
ning to head; that the heads are long
and the straw heavy, and nowhere
are there, indications of damage by
insects or storms.
The Burlington, in estimating the
nrea.nt condition, makes A comoari-

Good Wheat Weather.
The weather of the last week was
very favorable for the growth of ,,
wheat, it having been wet ana cooi.
However, it was not ao good for
corn, though in most portions of the
state this cereal is reported to have
made good progress. The corn has
all been cultivated once and in the
southern part of the state the farm
ers are going through their fields a
second time, ii ia aouai -vanced
aa ordinarily at this season
of the year.
Oata and barley promise to make
an unusually heavy yield and the
acreage is fully up to it not aoovs
the average. . ' . "; ''
The first cutting of alfalfa Is fin-,
ished and the crop sucked, and gen
erally it has been put away in excel
lent condition, Owing to the sea
sonable rains the first cutting was
much heavier than usuaU ' '
Pastures Are Great
Pastures continue to be in perfect ;
condition. Potatoes and all of the .
root crops are coming along rapidly,
promising a good yield.
As to fruit, it is asserted that the :
apple crop promises to be large and1
about up to that of last year. The
peach crop, ia likely to be somewhat
short owing to a good many of the
trees having been Killed last winter.
Strawberry picking ia about over. An
enormous crop has beeji harvested
and the cherry and other berry crops
give promise oi being better than an
average. AH through 'the southern
portions of the state cherry 'picking
is weH along. ;

Overcome bv despondency. Cleo,
Hnne and Hook stood staring at the
heap of smoking debris which, a few
minutes before, naa been uawsons

had perished all their hopes of recov
ering the lost tormuia. . v.ieo, ncr
nerves shattered by the long strain
they, had been under, -was sobbing
silently on Hope's shoulder. ,
"Don't cry, dear. It's going to
turn out all right," he whispered, with
an attempt of reassurance he was far
from feeling. "We'J find some way
of getting the names of. those who
bought the books. We can put adver-
tisements in the papers onering a re
ward for any information concerning
them "
"I know I'm a perfect coward," sob
bed Cleo, "but 1 m o discouraged
that I just can't help crying. It meant
so much to us to get those books
back, and then, just as we were on
the track of them, that horrid old
building had to burn down."
"There goes old Dawson now,"
Hope heard someone remark.
"Is this Mr. Dawson?" he asked,
tapping the man on tne shoulder.
"It is," was the curt answer, "but
I've no time to bother with reporters
now. You can say that I am fully
covered by insurance."'
"I'm glad to hear that you were m-
aurarl." said Hooe. "but I m not a re
porter. I am Lieutenant Hope of the

of your time. I wish to inquire about
a matter m which the government is
deeply interested. . , , .
"W.I1. we can't ta k m this crowd,?
said Dawson, none too cordially.
"Suppose we step over to that cigar
store on the corner Now, lets
have your questions quickly, lieuten
ant, for I've lots of things waiting to
be seen to.", ,. , '.
"I believe," began Hope, "that you
sold at auction today some books
which were sent you last week by
Miss Burke of Valdavia. Can you give
me" but he got no further.
"Merciful heaven I" shouted Daw
son, "how many more times must I
be pestered about those cursed
books? How do. I know that you re
a naval officer, anyway? I m begin
ning to think there's something
crooked about the matter. I ve half

mYou needn't get excited, Mr. Daw

"What vnu aav astounds me. Hooe '

and Hook joined them. "This is a

the answer. "It never occurred to me

"Satsumal" the three exclaimed in
chorus.
"He didn't give me his name," said
Dawson, "but he did give me $20 for a

the others did."
"I will be quite frank with you, Mr.
